Another update from Jim Ross, and another batch of interesting comments. Here are YOUR Jim Ross blog highlights:
on Brock Lesnar and the UFC Heavyweight Title
Lesnar wasn’t stripped of his title which is a smart thing by UFC officials but I must ask why does UFC need an “interim” heavyweight champion to be decided in March while Brock is saying that he will be ready to go in the Summer? I don’t get it.
on The Rock:
Got a great email from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson this morning as he is hitting it hard promoting “The Tooth Fairy” which opens in theaters this Friday. We will be checking it out this weekend without question. Rock will be all over ESPN on Thursday and I expect him to cross paths privately and on the air with Rock’s former WWE colleague Jonathan Coachman who now dons the broadcaster chair in Bristol for ESPN. Perhaps Rock will entice Coach to “dance the Charleston” as he once did on Monday Night Raw.
on Brett Favre:
Did you know that Minnesota QB Brett Favre was not only a New Orleans Saints fan as a kid growing up in Kiln, Mississippi but he was also a fan of Mid South Wrestling and loved JYD, who didn’t back then, but also the rebellious, Fabulous Freebirds and occasionally attended matches at the Gulf Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi?
